To round off the year at the Maddermarket this evening’s gig reunites tenor saxophonist Colin Wilsher with his former Norwich sax tutor, altoist George Philips for a lively double-header backed by the club’s house trio.
One of a long succession of talented Norwich exports, Colin is currently in his second year at the Guildhall School of Music & Drama where his mentors include saxophonists Jean Toussaint and Rachael Cohen and guitarist Chris Allard.
Numbering Charlie Parker, Hank Mobley, Thelonious Monk and Norfolk’s own Kit Downes among his influences, this evening’s Perennials of Swing, Hard-Bop and Post-Bop programme brings together tunes that have stood the test of time, and have been arranged by Colin especially for our quintet.
Admission £18 / U25s £9 / after 9.30pm £9
Doors 7.30pm / Music from 8.30-11pm
